When I was younger, I would often replay single-player games a ridiculous amount. Having an unchecked addictive personality and a dislike of playing online meant that when I was hooked on a game, I would replay it several times back-to-back. Examples from when I was younger are games like BioShock, Psychonauts and Alice: Madness Returns. It’s a ritual I’ve since abandoned; once I’m done with a game now I uninstall and scarcely revisit it apart from one notable example: for the past seven-to-eight years, I have played through the Half-Life series in its entirety at least once per year. The series has been a notable example for me of something that no matter how many times I play it, I can always come back to it. During this time, nothing else I’ve played has managed to rise to the level of praise I hold for the aforementioned games.
